GARDAÍ HAVE ARRESTED nine Romanian nationals as part of what they describe as an operation to combat “large scale burglaries” in Dublin city centre.
The nine individuals – seven men and two women – were all arrested in raids at around 7:15am this morning by Gardaí from the Pearse Street station, and are currently being detained at various Garda stations across the capital.
Five of the males, aged between their mid-teens and mid-30s, are detained under Section 50 of the Criminal Justice Act, 2007.
Another two men, aged 27 and 22, are being detained under Section 4 of the Criminal Justice Act, 1984.
One female, 23, was arrested in respect of outstanding arrest warrants, and has appeared in the courts this morning. Another female, 35, was removed to prison under immigration laws.
